Lyrics
0:00Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
0:18If I could paint a picture
0:22Of the love I have inside
0:25It would paint all of you and all of me
0:30Without no thought of pride
0:33Then maybe you would know
0:36Exactly all the things I feel
0:40Not just a maybe
0:43But baby I'm for real
0:48'Cause I've been wishin' on the stars and hopin'
0:52Just as it shoots across the sky
0:57Searchin' for the so-called answers
1:00That we're supposed to find in time
1:05Holding you close
1:09Not letting go
1:13Baby I've got to let you know
1:22Dear lover
1:26I hope this letter finds you
1:29Dear lover
1:34And that it comes in time to say no "C'est la vie"
1:42Baby dear lover
1:52(Listen to me)
1:56If I could write your name out
2:00Forever in the Hall of Fame
2:03It would be history no mystery
2:08Not at all in vain
2:12I'd quote a poet on a verse
2:16That read when I was small
2:18And write your name out
2:21Across the sky in letter ten feet tall
2:27'Cause I've been wishing on the rings of Saturn
2:31Calling on Jupiter and Mars
2:36Praying on ten zillion light years
2:39To bring you closer to my heart
2:44Holding you close
2:48Not letting go
2:52Baby I've got to let you know
3:02Dear lover
3:05I hope this letter finds you
3:08Dear lover
3:13And that it comes in time to say no "C'est la vie"
3:21Baby listen to me darlin'
3:26Baby every word that I say
3:29Baby I'll give you my love ooh ooh
3:40Baby if you say you love me
3:41I'll be right by your side
3:46Dare anyone to try to take
3:49You from me all my life
3:54Straight from my heart
3:57Dear lover
4:03Straight from my heart
4:05Dear lover
4:09Straight from my heart
4:13Dear lover
4:19Ooh hoo ooh ooh ooh ooh
4:35Dear lover
4:38Dear lover
4:44Straight straight straight from my heart
4:54Dear lover
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh If I could paint a picture Of the love I have inside It would paint all of you and all of me Without no thought of pride Then maybe you would know Exactly all the things I feel Not just a maybe But baby I'm for real 'Cause I've been wishin' on the stars and hopin' Just as it shoots across the sky Searchin' for the so-called answers That we're supposed to find in time Holding you close Not letting go Baby I've got to let you know Dear lover I hope this letter finds you Dear lover And that it comes in time to say no "C'est la vie" Baby dear lover (Listen to me) If I could write your name out Forever in the Hall of Fame It would be history no mystery Not at all in vain I'd quote a poet on a verse That read when I was small And write your name out Across the sky in letter ten feet tall 'Cause I've been wishing on the rings of Saturn Calling on Jupiter and Mars Praying on ten zillion light years To bring you closer to my heart Holding you close Not letting go Baby I've got to let you know Dear lover I hope this letter finds you Dear lover And that it comes in time to say no "C'est la vie" Baby listen to me darlin' Baby every word that I say Baby I'll give you my love ooh ooh Baby if you say you love me I'll be right by your side Dare anyone to try to take You from me all my life Straight from my heart Dear lover Straight from my heart Dear lover Straight from my heart Dear lover Ooh hoo ooh ooh ooh ooh Dear lover Dear lover Straight straight straight from my heart Dear lover
